Thirst Street

Gina (Lindsay Burdge) is an American flight attendant in her mid-30s who is still coming to terms with the suicide of her boyfriend (played in flashbacks by Damien Bonnard). During a layover in Paris, she and two of her co-workers end up at a strip club, thinking it will be a cabaret. There she meets the manager, Jerome (Bonnard); she is drawn to him in part because of his resemblance to her late boyfriend. The two have a one-night stand, and then she comes back the next day and the two have sex again. On a whim, Gina decides to quit her job, move to Paris, and get an apartment across the street from Jerome's; she then also gets a job as a waitress at the strip club, all in an attempt to start a relationship with Jerome. Jerome shows growing discomfort with her, and rekindles his relationship with his on-again, off-again rock singer girlfriend, Clémence, eventually proposing to Clémence. Depressed, Gina stops paying her rent checks or going to work, resulting in her being kicked out of her apartment and fired from her job. She decides to devote herself full-time to getting together with Jerome, and lies to him that she is pregnant with his child. After finding out the truth, Jerome runs away from Gina into the street and is hit by a car, ending up in a coma. Gina tells the people at the hospital that she is Jerome's fiancee, and receives his possessions, including the engagement ring he bought, which she proudly wears.
